Dog Walking Fair Oaks

“David did a great job walking Penny. She seemed very happy and comfortable with him and I really appreciated the photos from each walk. Will definitely use again!”

“Riley has been such a amazing help while I was recovering from an injury that prevented me from being able to take my dog on a walk. He was very careful of her limitstions of being dog reactive and made me feel comfortable that she was in good hands!”

About: I grew up with all kinds of animals, and am happy to care for almost all furry friends and babies now. I cater to pet parents’ preferences and enjoy every second I get with a new animal friend. I work a 9-5. I have hybrid flexibility, so I can accommodate daytime drop ins on a case by case basis. Generally, I am available for drop ins any day of the week in the morning and evening. I can housesit too, and if I am given Wi-Fi access, I can also be with your pet during the day. I will feed your pet, administer medications, attend to litter box and other bathroom needs, replenish water, engage them in play, and check safety needs before I go. I will also take a photo or video at the time of my visit and send it to you if that is your preference. While house sitting, I will do all of the above and also adhere to any special routine you have for the pet and do minor house needs too, like taking the mail or watering plants.

“Second time booking Mariah to walk our elder dog and our husky. Appreciate her great attitude, daily communication, and how well she treats the dogs!!”

“Raina has done a wonderful job walking our dog. We had a lot of additional details and she can be a bit of a high maintenance pup and Raina took it all in stride. Our pup loves her and her walks!”

“Derek was amazing with my spastic 1 yr old Golden Retriever! She always came back worked out and tired and a huge smile on her face. Thank you for taking such great care of my Gemma!”

About: Hi! My name is Kimya, and animals have always been a huge part of my life. I volunteer at shelters and I have owned and cared for dogs my entire life, from small to large breeds as well as bully breeds. I understand firsthand the responsibility, patience, and consistency that goes into providing excellent care. In addition to caring for my own pets, my experience consists of volunteering at a local animal shelter, where I’ve worked with dogs of different sizes, ages, temperaments, and backgrounds. This experience has helped me become comfortable handling everything from energetic puppies to shy, nervous, or misunderstood dogs that need a little extra patience and structure. Over the years, I have also gained experience caring for dogs with medical and behavioral needs. While I am not a veterinarian, I am attentive and knowledgeable when it comes to monitoring changes in appetite, energy level, mobility, skin and coat condition, digestive health, and overall well-being. I understand how important it is to notice when something isn’t quite right and communicate with owners promptly. I believe every pet is an individual, and I take the time to learn their routine, personality, and needs. Whether your dog enjoys long walks, playtime, sticking to a familiar schedule, or simply having company while you’re away, my goal is to help them feel safe, comfortable, and well cared for. I treat every animal in my care as if they were my own and understand the trust that comes with leaving a pet with someone else. You can expect dependable care, regular updates, and the peace of mind that your pet is in capable hands. I am available for walks, drop-ins, house sitting, and boarding depending on the dates needed. I prioritize maintaining your pet’s normal routine as closely as possible and will provide updates and photos throughout their stay. Your pet’s safety and comfort are my top priorities. I have experience caring for dogs of all sizes, including large breeds, puppies, seniors, and dogs with special behavioral or medical considerations. I carefully follow feeding instructions, medication schedules, exercise requirements, and any household rules you have in place. I have a fenced yard and can separate dogs if needed to ensure everyone remains safe and comfortable. I take the time to learn each pet’s personality, triggers, and routine so I can provide individualized care.

About: I've lived with dogs my whole life, from German Shepherds and Rottweilers to Chows, so I understand dog behavior and body language. My current best friend is a 14-year-old Shih Tzu/Maltese mix, and these days I'm focusing on small and medium dogs (under 50 lbs) and seniors. I go at your dog's pace, keep walks safe and fun, and send photo updates so you know they're happy. Se habla español! I'm bilingual in English and Spanish, so I'm happy to chat with you or your pup in either. I'm recently retired, love dogs, and want to get in more daily steps, so walking your fur baby is a perfect fit for me. My schedule is flexible, so I can offer weekday walks / mornings / afternoons and I'm happy to walk consistently, rain or shine. Due to caring for my sweet senior dog, I'm not offering house sits at this time. If this changes, I will update my profile here.

About: I’m an active, highly disciplined professional athlete with years of experience caring for dogs & cats of all breeds and sizes. My background in elite athletics means I have the stamina for long, engaging walks, active exercise, and rigorous attention to routine and safety. Whether your pet needs high energy cardio or a calm, structured stroll around the neighborhood, I prioritize their wellbeing, safety, and happiness every step of the way. I treat every pet with the same level of focus and care I bring to my daily training. As a full time athlete managing a flexible training schedule, I have structured availability for midday, early morning, and evening walks. Dog walking fits seamlessly into my active daily routine. I pride myself on prompt communication, strict punctuality, and flexibility to meet your schedule so you always have peace of mind while you're away or at work. Safety and accountability are my highest priorities. During walks or house visits, your dog will always be securely on leash, closely monitored, and kept safe from external hazards. I pay close attention to heat, hydration, and body language to ensure your pet stays comfortable throughout our time together. I follow all home entry instructions meticulously and provide regular photo updates after every walk so you know your pet is safe, secure, and well cared for.

“Jenelle came by when I needed her most! She got our high energy dog out on a nice walk and was incredibly friendly, good with him and it was so helpful!”

“Thank you Rebeckah for walking Charlie, he super enjoyed.”

About: I have been an animal lover, and owner, my whole life as well as a volunteer when possible over the last 20 years. I have patience and a genuine love for animals, their safety and happiness. I take my reputation very seriously. I work for myself as a Newborn Care Specialist and Sleep Trainer. So I make my own schedule and therefore have flexibility to incorporate pet care into my schedule. I will always respect your home and your animals. I'm there to provide a service and I take pride in the work that I do. I will follow instructions/directions, communicate and be there for your pet as much or as little as they need/want me.

“Anastassia was great to work with. She took great care of Archie. She was very prompt and responsive. Will definitely recommend her your pet care needs.”

About: Hello there! My name is Brenda and I am new to the Greater Sacramento area. Before moving to Rancho Cordova I volunteered at the Inland Valley Humane Society and SPCA. I've always been an animal lover and have experience caring for both dogs and cats, including my own pets and helping care for family and friends' pets. I'm comfortable with different personalities and understand that every pet has their own routine, preferences, and quirks. I'm naturally very patient and attentive with animals, and I genuinely enjoy to know their personalities. Whether your pet is energetic and playful or prefers to relax and cuddle, I'm happy to meet them where they're at and make sure they feel comfortable and cared for while you're away. My schedule is very flexible right now, so I have plenty of availability throughout the week for walks, drop-ins, or boarding — mornings, afternoons, and evenings. I may eventually pick up part-time work, but even then I’d still have consistent time set aside for pet care. There’s also a park right across the street from my apartment, so daily walks and playtime are easy to build into the routine. I enjoy having a reason to get outside, stay active, and spend time with animals, so walks and drop-in visits fit really naturally into my day. I am also able to plan my schedule around your pet's routine and make sure they get the attention and care they need rather than feeling like they're just being checked off my list. Your pets safety and comfort are my biggest priorities. I always want pets to feel secure and comfortable in their environment. I live in an apartment with two cats of my own so I don’t currently have dogs at home — just a calm, clean space I keep consistent for any pet staying with me. My cats are used to visitors and generally easygoing, but I’m happy to talk through introductions ahead of time if that matters for your pet. There’s a park directly across the street, which makes it easy to get dogs outside for exercise multiple times a day. I'm respectful of your home, your pet's normal routine. I'll make sure doors and gates are secure, follow feeding and medication instructions when needed, and pay attention to anything that seems unusual with your pet. Most importantly, I know that trusting someone with your pet is a big deal, so I'll treat them with the same patience and care I could want for my own.

About: Although my career for the past 20 years has been in the mental health field, my passion is also for animals. I did not grow up with dogs, but had many cats, birds, turtles, snakes, and fish. Finally at the age of 34 I adopted my first dog, a pomeranian named Winston. He became the absolute love of my life quickly. I understood why so many people become so bonded with their doggies. Winston was by my side even when humans weren't. I never laughed so hard playing with him all those years and then never cried so hard when he passed recently. I miss him every single day. But feel so blessed to have had him in my life. Although I am not ready to get another dog, I am absolutely looking forward to helping other people with their family pets. I know I was extremely OCD with Winstons care and did not trust many people with him when I had to work or travel. So it means a lot to me to be trusted with your family pet. Plus, I get to have fun doing something that brings me joy! I am currently working part time so am pretty flexible. I am up early as well so can be the early helper if someone needs it. I am always mindful of my environment and will be so when I approach your house and pet. I have worked in the mental health field for over 20 years so am good at assessing a situation, staying calm and making good judgement calls. Safety is always a priority also. I want you and your pet to trust me and be safe.

“Kendall was great! She was communicative, attentive, and easy-going. She documented all her walks with Zohar, took pictures, and kept me updated each time. I greatly appreciated her last minute help! Would highly suggest and recommend for any of your pet needs!”

About: Hi I’m Kaeli, your pet’s new best friend! Thank you for stopping by. I’ve grown up with small pets and dogs and have 5 years of professional animal care experience working at an animal shelter. I’ve been petsitting professionally for about 2 years and love the relationships with families I’ve built. I’ve taken care of and fostered puppies, kittens, senior dogs, guinea pigs, rabbits… you name it! I am comfortable with pretty much anything with or without legs! 🙂 I have a flexible schedule and can accommodate your family’s schedule and pet routines. Whatever you need, just ask! We can figure it out. My own household is a brat pack of rescues—2 dogs, 3 cats, and 2 rabbits. They are spoiled… Some would say too spoiled 😆 While I’m not home with them, my husband holds down the fort. I’m confident your pets will feel safe, comfortable, and loved in my care. I treat them like they’re my nieces and nephews. Please don’t hesitate to reach out—I’d love to see if we would be a good fit.
